Thinking of this, Ning Cheng put down all his thoughts and focused all his attention on the humanoid puppet he had just taken out.
For other Pill Saints, it might have ended here. However, he was different from others because he cultivated the Mysterious Yellow Origin Cultivation Method, the Mysterious Yellow Formless. Formless and invisible, as long as something had a form, it would not be able to hide from his deductions and would appear clearly and unmistakably.
The only thing he worried about was whether he could comprehend the Puppet Technique and break the crystal restriction covering this medicine garden before the sand leak ended.
Ning Cheng's mind was completely immersed in the humanoid puppet he had just smashed. His Spiritual Consciousness did not have the slightest scruple as it slowly broke through the puppet's obstruction and restrictions. The Dark Nether Spirit Eater provided Ning Cheng with great help at this time. Some of the restrictions that others would have to peel off slowly, under the tearing of his Spiritual Consciousness, it directly broke through.
When Ning Cheng fell into the deductions of the Mysterious Yellow Formless, the Mysterious Yellow Origin Aura almost completely surrounded him, and the puppet refining method gradually took shape in Ning Cheng's mind.
At this moment, the entire medicine garden was abnormally silent except for the sound of the sand leak.
Ning Cheng was not only a Pill Saint, but he was also an Artefact-crafting Powerhouse. Although the Puppet Technique was separate, it still belonged to a branch of Artefact-crafting.
With the help of the Origin deduction, Ning Cheng only took half an hour before he opened his eyes again. He knew that he could now refine a humanoid puppet by himself.
However, Ning Cheng did not show even half a shred of surprise in his eyes. Although he could refine a puppet, it did not mean that he could break the puppet's crystal cover.
Although he understood the puppet refining method, he did not understand how the puppet provided the Divine Spiritual Essence Qi. He also did not understand why the six humanoid puppets could recover so quickly.
Without understanding these things, even if he could refine a humanoid puppet, it would still be useless. What's more, the level of the humanoid puppets he could refine right now was simply too low. Compared to the six humanoid puppets he had dealt with before, they were on a completely different level.
Even if he figured out how the humanoid puppet provided the divine spiritual qi, or even how it recovered, he wouldn't be able to use the puppet techniques he had learned in this one hour to break this crystal restriction that was refined using puppet techniques.
Whether in theory or in practice, he could not complete this difficult task. Unless he had the kind of Time Array Disc that Cang Wei had mentioned. Unfortunately, that kind of thing was just too precious, at least he had never seen it before.
Ning Cheng gave out a sigh. He then took out the other five crippled humanoid puppets from his ring. He studied the human-shaped puppets for the time it took for half an incense stick to burn.
Seeing the sand in the hourglass decreasing, Ning Cheng grew more and more anxious. He sighed and finally gave up on continuing to study the Puppet Technique. Instead, he sent a Spiritual Consciousness Message to the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King, "Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan, when you were entangling those puppets, did you find anything unusual?"
At this moment, the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan was immersed in the joy of its sudden increase in strength. As long as it could successfully cross the tribulation outside, it would become a Starry Sky Grade 9 Demonic Rattan. In just a short time, it had almost reached Starry Sky Grade 9. Compared to the long years it had spent growing up, now it would laugh even in its dreams.
Following behind the master, no, it should be called master, something Big Brother Chasing Bull had told him about. As long as it followed behind its master, it might even have the chance to take on a human form.
Now that Ning Cheng asked, how could it dare to neglect? It quickly sent out a Spiritual Consciousness Message. It wanted to tell its master everything it knew.
These humanoid puppets could absorb wood-attributed spirit essence. Moreover, they had a starry sky demon plant inside their bodies, called the Invisible Stone Stem.
A bolt of lightning flashed through Ning Cheng's mind, as if he wanted to grasp something. He suddenly stood up and asked eagerly, "What is that Invisible Stone Stem?"
The Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King's Spiritual Consciousness Message came again, "The Invisible Stone Stem is an extremely rare starry sky demon plant. It has only a stone-like seed, and the stone stem that germinates and grows is invisible. Although invisible, it has a strong survivability. The longest Invisible Stone Stem can extend its invisible roots hundreds of miles away from the starry sky.
The easiest way to destroy the Invisible Stone Stem is to suck out all the Essence Qi from the seed of the Invisible Stone Stem. That way, the Invisible Stone Stem will die completely and can no longer absorb Spirit Essence Qi. That's how I did it. "
Ning Cheng gave a hearty laugh, what did he mean by 'without any effort'? That was it. He had thought of all kinds of means, but he never thought that this humanoid puppet would be powered by the Invisible Stone Stem Seed. When that powerhouse refined these humanoid puppets, he controlled the growth of these Invisible Stone Stems, which allowed them to form invisible roots inside the puppet's body. These roots acted like the human body's blood vessels and meridians, providing the puppet with the ability to move.
Even if he destroyed the puppet, as long as the Spirit Essence Qi inside the Invisible Stone Stem Seed was not sucked dry, it could still absorb the Spirit Essence Qi and restore the humanoid puppet. He had seen the Invisible Stone Stem Seed inside the puppet before. He had always thought that it was some puppet material that had been destroyed. He never expected it to be a demon plant.
The person who refined this puppet was a genius. Not only was he a genius, but he also had a good understanding of the Invisible Stone Stem. He could even control the growth of the Invisible Stone Stem. Unfortunately, he met his Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King. This was because his Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King's level wasn't high enough. If its level was high enough, no matter how many of these humanoid puppets appeared, it wouldn't be enough for the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King to absorb.
Ning Cheng looked up at the hourglass and saw that there was still about an incense stick worth of time left. If he hurried, he should be able to open the Dao Fruit Garden's entrance on the fourth floor of the Fantasy Garden before the hourglass ran out.
Ning Cheng couldn't do anything about this crystal restriction without knowing how it worked. But now that he knew that this crystal restriction was formed by the Invisible Stone Stems, even without the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King, he still had a way to deal with it. Not to mention that he still had the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King?
"Underworld Crow, this crystal restriction is also formed by the Invisible Stone Stems. I'll use an array formation to imprison the Spirit Essence underground for a few breaths. You have to suck these Invisible Stone Stems to death in the shortest time possible." Ning Cheng directly called out the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King.
Even if the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King couldn't do it, he could still break these Invisible Stone Stems. It's just that it would take more than an incense stick worth of time.
The Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King liked the Spirit Essence Qi inside the Invisible Stone Stem Seed the most. Even if it couldn't use it now, it could store it in its body. Once it advanced to become a Starry Sky Grade 9 Demon Plant, it could use it.
Others might not be able to find the existence of the Invisible Stone Stems, but the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King didn't feel any pressure. Therefore, as soon as Ning Cheng called it out, it didn't wait for Ning Cheng's instructions and stretched out its roots. Soon, the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King's roots covered the entire crystal restriction.
In just a few breaths, the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King locked onto all the Invisible Stone Stem Seeds within the crystal restriction. The crystal restriction trembled and buzzed. Apparently, these Invisible Stone Stems also had some instinctive intelligence and could feel the extreme danger.
Ning Cheng didn't show any leniency and immediately threw out array flags. In just a dozen breaths, the spiritual aura around the crystal started to weaken.
"Absorb!" Ning Cheng gave a shout, and the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King started crazily absorbing the Wood-Origin Spirit Essence Qi inside the Invisible Stone Stem Seeds.
The Invisible Stone Stems didn't have much combat ability, and their biggest role was to support. Whether it was to support the humanoid puppet or to support the crystal restriction. However, support was their greatest ability.
Now that Ning Cheng isolated the Spirit Essence Qi underground with an array formation, the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King crazily absorbed the Essence Qi inside the Invisible Stone Stem Seeds.
In less than half an incense stick worth of time, the crystal restriction cracked open.
After a few breaths, a "Kacha" sound emerged, and the weird crystal restriction completely disappeared. The rich smell of divine grasses and the fragrance of Dao Fruits mixed together, making people feel refreshed.
From the beginning until Ning Cheng opened the crystal restriction, one could say that he didn't have to use the Puppet Technique at all. The trace of possibility left behind by the powerhouse who arranged the Fantasy Garden was a complete lie. He lied and wasted his time on studying the Puppet Technique. After an hour, even if he managed to study the Puppet Technique, it would all be in vain.
Ning Cheng sighed. Sure enough, there was always a teacher in a group of three. He only had the Underworld Crow Ghost Rattan King to teach him a lesson at this time and even helped him a lot.
Breaking the crystal restriction, Ning Cheng didn't think too much about it and directly threw out one array flag after another. He wanted to move the entire medicine garden away, and he didn't feel even a little bit embarrassed about it.
In just a few minutes, Ning Cheng moved the entire medicine garden. With a 'Kacha' sound, he moved the entire medicine garden into the True Spirit World.
The medicine garden moved away, along with all the divine grasses and Dao Fruits within the medicine garden. However, Ning Cheng felt dumbfounded. He didn't see the entrance to the fourth floor of the Fantasy Garden appear in front of him like he had imagined.
Looking at the hourglass, which was now less than half an incense stick worth of time, Ning Cheng felt extremely anxious. Even if he found the entrance to the fourth floor of the Fantasy Garden, he most likely wouldn't have the time to refine pills to open the door.
Ning Cheng didn't hold back his spiritual consciousness and blasted it out one after another. At this moment, he could see the powerful spiritual consciousness attack.
After more than a dozen breaths, a concealment restriction appeared in the range of Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness. Ning Cheng didn't even think about it and threw out one array flag after another. Now that he couldn't find a way out, he wouldn't let go of any place that might lead him to the fourth floor of the Fantasy Garden.
This concealment restriction wasn't powerful, and under Ning Cheng's array flags, it quickly revealed itself. This was an orchard. To be precise, it was a Dao Orchard, because it was filled with Dao Fruit Trees.
Ning Cheng rushed over and looked at the rows of Dao Fruit Trees in front of him in shock. He roughly glanced around and found that there were at least fifty or sixty of them.
What was going on? There was no fourth floor, no fifth floor, and no sixth floor. After he broke the crystal restriction on the third floor, so many Dao Fruit Trees appeared. Moreover, these Dao Fruit Trees ranged from Dao Sculpting Dao Fruit to Dao Transformation Dao Fruit. There were even more than a dozen of them, but Ning Cheng couldn't even identify them.
Most likely, this was the essence of the Fantasy Garden, the real Fantasy Garden.
Ning Cheng looked back at the hourglass and estimated that it didn't even have a quarter of an incense stick worth of time left.
Not good, Ning Cheng instantly understood. These Dao Fruit Gardens were connected. Most likely, once the hourglass ended, he would be teleported out.
